The nice mare from FoE: Treasure Hunting www.fimfiction.net/story/53502… Here she is helping a lost little changeling back home. Yeah she's noce like that. Took some (read:shitload) artistic liberties with this, but eh.. had fun. A big reason I wanted to draw this was because guns...

This bugger took way too long... I need to simplify my drawing process.

ps. silly little changeling... if you're going to steal a gun, steal a proper one. You should have just tossed that piece of crap to a lake... hah!

It can jam ? Well, practically any firearm can jam. Any mechanism can technically jam.

It wastes ammo ? Since when ammo spent to take down an enemy is wasted ? If handguns were that great in CQBs and short-distance fights, then how come they are still kept as secondary weapons, while the submachineguns and assault rifles are primary weapons ?

Besides, at short distances, accuracy comes only after rate of fire. Thus the use of SMGs and assault rifles in short-distance fights.

And even if a handgun has potentially more accuracy, by the time you - not you personally, of course. It's a general you - take your aim, you'll have tens and tens of bullets fired at you. In that case, if the enemy misses a few shots, (s)he doesn't care, because (s)he a a greater rate of fire. While you'll have to rely mostly, if not only, on pure luck to get one, only one, barely aimed - if aimed at all - shot to take her or him down before (s)he can press the trigger.

Wow, This is really cool. Is this scene canon to that story? I've only just now started analyzing Treasure Hunting for rules adaptations to the universe-system, but I've been working on changeling rules and need more reference material.

No, at current this has no bearing on the story. I'd accept it as something that could be, because it fits the story perfectly. As per changeling rules? I can offer my own headcanon if you want to message me directly, but I want to remind you that it's just that... Headcanon!

man i saw this on reddit and thought, hey maybe this is from a story with a changling as a main character. You have no idea how much i want a story with a changling character in the group. i was actually thinking about writing one but im horrible at writing and i cant get it off the ground.

thanks. Though I was certain someone would comment something like "the barrel is not straight" and I could smugly state that it is the way it's supposed to be.... oh well. I'll be smug some other time.
